day 4

Rainy here and I have been climbing the walls. Thankful for the rain it is needed but I can't stand the thought of TV only.
Would it be horrible if I got some valium and took a good nap? I've been doing well but I would really relish some real relax time. I don't take tranqs regularly.

I don't know exactly. We keep in touch via Facebook mostly. His sister is curator at a museum in Melbourne last I heard, and the parents live in Sydney. They are near where the bad floods were some time ago.

Wow, you've been busy! That's awesome and so important. You're keeping yourself occupied and if you keep that up your body will soon be ready for more rest, which will mean more sleep. :D It sounds like you are staying at a very lovely place where you can regenerate and heal. I hope you have a great day!

Yep...I am eating and drinking plenty of water. I made a casserole on day one but reverted to soup and crackers on day two. I actually haven't lost my appatite so that is good and other than this morning when it was gloomy and rainy I haven't let myself lay around feeling sorry. I do some light yardwork, keep things clean except I haven't made my bed, and I am exercising. Light sunbathing a couple of times. Not my thing but I figure the full spectrum light would be good. 15-20 mins a time at most. My mood is good, even now wide awake at 2:30AM I'm okay. Thanks!

Thanks. I am out in the boondocks. It is beautiful and I am doing okay. I have found that my phone will work with MedHelp - a GodInstance I am sure since the net connection usually s++++. I've been reading other's posts about cheating a little with tramadol or valium/xanax and I have got to quit looking at those much as I sympathize. They are triggers. This morning was gloomy and rainy and I could not get pills off my mind. We don't have cable but lots of DVD and VCR tapes. I've been out here almost constantly since Sunday and it has been good. Nobody has spent this many nights in a row here in a long time. It's a 4 bdrom house with two floors and a two level covered porch facing the river. I raise my head off my pillow at night and see water. Last night I sat on the upstairs porch swing during the rain in the middle of the night thanking God for being with us. Sun came out this afternoon and I caught three fish (bream, let em go) and walked up and down the street bout 45 mins and met some neighbors. I don't wanna go back to the real world but if things keep going well I need to. NEWS FLASH! My pain is getting better! I have been using a cane and I can now go up and down stair normally rather than one at a time! I have been taking 500mg Naproxyn once a day but I thing the drugs washing out are making a difference. Not nearly as achy this afternoon. Thanks all. I did take a little nap but no help. I can sleep an hour or two around 11 then maybe a little more around 5AM. That is enough to keep me sane. -Randy

A nap, doesn't that sound good lol.  I remember naps, but that seems so long ago.  I just wanted to say hi and tell you that you are doing fantastic. I know you put alot of thought into doing this and had a great plan.
Keep being strong.

Is there something that you could do besides tv? Maybe read, play a game on your phone, computer, or console? Work some crosswords? The reason I say that is while I understand your wanting to nap, if you do that it may impact your sleep tonight. I found that after I stopped taking naps during the day I slept better at night.
